Question no 1 :
Write the definition of Decentralized and Centralized Social Media Platforms in your own words.Explain in your own words the difference between decentralization and centralization Social Media Platforms

---

Centralized Social Media Platforms:

So firstly we will see that what is centralized social media. As it can be known just by seeing the name of centralization as in centralization the thing is controlled by some authority.

So a Centralized Social Media is also authorized by some authority and all the data of every person who is working on centralized social media is stored at the servers of that authority who is running it.

In Centralized Social Media, your work and your real-life are not safe as the authority has all the data of you and we have listened to many news that hackers have attack the social media and the information of many users are leaked. Facebook, Instagram are some real-life examples of that as I remember just a month ago millions of users' information got leaked, so there is always a possibility that your information on that platform is being sold to other people or also hackers can steal it.

The other thing is centralized social media is that you can be banned there any moment, even if you are working there for months or years. Your all hard work can be gone in a minute.

Decentralized Social Media Platforms:

So Decentralized is also can be known from its name that no power or authority is running it, all the servers are working independently in this Decentralized Social Media Platforms.

A decentralized system gives people more power, autonomy and makes them more independant. There is no authority behind that system and all of that works on its own.

And the best part of the Decentralized Social Media Platforms is that nobody can ban you, as nobody has the authority so that means your hard work of months or years are safe till the very end.

Decentralized Social Media Platforms we don't have to worry about our information being leaked as many things are transparent here and as there is no authority who safe our data as the server do their work independently so nobody has the power to share or sell your information to any third party.

Difference between Decentralization and Centralization Social Media Platforms:

So the difference can be seen by the name is centralization social media is being run by some authority, while the Decentralization social media works independently.

There is no chance of you being blocked or banned on decentralized Social Media as there is no power to do so and your work or if you are doing business on a decentralized Social Media is safe, while on the other hand in Centralized Social Media you can be blocked at any time as there are no my regulation and other things and one mistake can make you ban from the site and all your hard work can disappear in a moment.

There is freedom of expression in Decentralization social media while in Centralized Social Media Platforms you can not say what you want to say and can not express your words and feelings there as they do not give much freedom of expression.

Which One is The Future of Social media ? Decentralized or centralized Social media.

---

Truly that is an interesting question. So firstly I want to tell you all that nobody likes to feel oppressed or being control by some authority or don't have the right to freedom of speech and expression.

So Definitely Decentralized Social media is the future of the social media platform. Decentralized is the future and as I was reading research some days ago, for some years people joining the centralized Social media is declining as nobody wants to be governed by someone and also don't want to risk their personal information.

In social media, if we see the main purpose and aspect is to provide personalized context to the users and the decentralized social media is the best in its form as it is transparency also give the marketing agency the information they want and they also can target their right market through the decentralized social media.

So as in today's world, the users want to have full command of their personal information.

How steemit decentralization social media is best than Twitter and Facebook.

---

As it is seen that the STEEMIT is a decentralization social media so your information is safe here while on Twitter and Facebook your information is not saved and I already have shared the case above.

STEEMIT platform pays you in form of Crypto which are SBD(Steem Dollar), STEEM, and TRON(TRX) for your work which can be of anything like if you like writing, or you are a photographer and you have any other skills the STEEMIT platform will pay you from the day one which comes from the likes of the people who like your post while on Twitter and Facebook you have to be famous first and to earn you have to become an influencer so you can advertise the things of the brand in exchange you can earn money.

STEEMIT has financially changed the condition of many including me as I did this I have paid my university fees by earning from here, as I just came here while I have been on Facebook and Twitter from like 2013 and I just have wasted my time there and not earn a single penny.

STEEMIT accounts are very safe as it has different keys and the security of STEEMIT is far better than Facebook and Twitter, as we have seen that the accounts of main country Leaders are also being hacked many times.

---

What do you say? How do Steemit social media change the lives of millions of its users?

---

There is no doubt in it that the STEEMIT platform has changed many lives as I remember I was very upset because of my family issues in 2017 as I was not able to pay my tuition fees but then I got to know about this platform and I earned some from here which helped me pay my tuition fee for a year and I didn't burden my family for that and even now the same thing happened and I joined back here and again STEEMIT platform is helping me and this time I will also be able to pay my university fees Inshallah.
I also have been seeing that many communities here are doing charity work also so the money which is earned through STEEMIT is also being used to bring so many smiles as even I was also a part of one charity drive which was organized by @steemit-pak.

How can we make money with Steemit's decentralized social media.

---

So actually there are many ways by which we can earn from STEEMIT decentralized social media.

So this is the one which I usually do, so in this, we have to do quality posting with no plagiarism content.

That quality posting can be consist of any writing blogs, diary, on which you can get a good upvote and that how much that value of the upvote the much you can earn.

The other way is participating in different types of contests as mostly every community makes a contest to promote their community so you can participate in that and if you win you can earn some STEEM from there.

Or you can earn from the curation trail as when you have a high STEEM POWER and you can upvote on quality contents by which you can get high curation.

How you can have high STEEM POWER? so there are two ways for that: Number one is you can invest in STEEM and can convert it into your STEEM POWER and the other way is that you should make your post on 100% POWER UP.
